Taxonomic status
Misapplication
Accepted in VicFlora as:
Rytidosperma pilosum
Victorian specimens referred to R. dimidiatum (Vickery) Connor & Edgar differ from genuine Tasmanian examples in having larger spikelets and lemmas with lateral lobes that taper evenly into the relatively long setae. They may constitute a distinct taxon, but presently are best placed within an already variable R. pilosum.
